I have always just added the mint to tea made with black tea bags - never tried using only mint. Will have to give this a try! I usually just use granulated sugar and "muddle" the mint in it before adding the boiling water. Have you ever ...more

This is an extremely refreshing summertime drink!!! I did take the easy route and made it by muddling the mint leaves and sugar before pouring boiling water over all and steeping. I'm sure I will be making this many more times this summer.
